Manage Port Forwarding to a Local Server for Services
and Applications
If a server is part of your network, you can allow certain types of incoming traffic to reach the
server. For example, you might want to make a local web server, FTP server, or game server
visible and available to the Internet.
The modem router can forward incoming traffic with specific protocols to computers on your
local network. You can specify the servers for applications and you can also specify a default
DMZ server to which the modem router forwards all other incoming protocols (see
Set Up a
Default DMZ Server
on page
135).
Forward Incoming Traffic for a Default Service or Application
You can forward traffic for a default service or application to a computer on your network.
To forward incoming traffic for a default service or application:
1.
Decide which type of service, application, or game you want to provide.
2.
Find the local IP address of the computer on your network that will provide the service.
The server computer must always receive the same IP address. To specify this setting,
use the reserved IP address feature. See
Manage Reserved LAN IP Addresses
on
page
139.
3.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.

Add a Port Forwarding Rule with a Custom Service or
Application
The modem router lists default services and applications that you can use in port forwarding
rules. If the service or application is not predefined, you can add a port forwarding rule with a
custom service or application.
To add a port forwarding rule with a custom service or application:
1.
Find out which port number or range of numbers the service or application uses.
You can usually find this information by contacting the publisher of the service or
application or through user groups or news groups.
2.

network.
